Property Description
Crowning the Longview building, Unit 603 offers 1,802 SF of refined top-floor living with sweeping views of the Charles River, Harvard athletic fields, and beyond. This elegant 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features a gracious layout with two spacious bedrooms in a private wing and a third ideal as an office or guest suite. The living room with fireplace flows into a formal dining room, while a handsome library with a second fireplace adds character. The kitchen connects to a walk-in pantry, enhancing storage and functionality. Central A/C, 8'5" ceilings, and period detailing elevate the space. As architect Louis Kahn wrote, “Architecture is the thoughtful making of space... evoking a feeling of quiet joy”—a sentiment beautifully realized throughout this top-floor home. Professionally managed, 100% owner-occupied, with 2 live-in superintendents. Landscaped common garden. Red Line to MIT, MGH, and Boston is just a block away.
